Overview

Charles-André Fustin is a researcher affiliated with Université Catholique de Louvain in Belgium, specializing in materials science and chemistry. Their work spans several subfields, including organic chemistry, polymers and plastics, molecular medicine, materials chemistry, and renewable energy with a focus on sustainability and the environment.

The research topics commonly addressed by Fustin include polymer composites and self-healing materials, advanced polymer synthesis and characterization, hydrogels-covering their synthesis, properties, and applications-supramolecular chemistry and complexes, polymer nanocomposites and their properties, force microscopy techniques and applications, and surfactants and colloidal systems.

Their recent published papers illustrate a focus on polymer chemistry and materials design:

  • Tunable Interpenetrating Polymer Network Hydrogels Based on Dynamic Covalent Bonds and Metal-Ligand Bonds, 2020, Macromolecules
  • Eco-Friendly Colloidal Aqueous Sol-Gel Process for TiO2 Synthesis: The Peptization Method to Obtain Crystalline and Photoactive Materials at Low Temperature, 2021, Catalysts
  • Real-Time Fluctuations in Single-Molecule Rotaxane Experiments Reveal an Intermediate Weak Binding State during Shuttling, 2021, Journal of the American Chemical Society
  • Dynamics of ring-containing polymers: Macromolecular rotaxanes, polyrotaxanes and slide-ring networks, 2024, Progress in Polymer Science
  • Balancing Ligand Flexibility versus Rigidity for the Stepwise Self-Assembly of M12L24 via M6L12 Metal-Organic Cages, 2020, Chemistry - A European Journal

Fustin frequently publishes in the journal Macromolecules and has multiple contributions to journals such as the Journal of Rheology, Catalysts, Progress in Polymer Science, and Macromolecular Chemistry and Physics. This publication record reflects a strong focus on polymer and materials science.

Collaborations are an important aspect of their research. Frequent coauthors include Evelyne van Ruymbeke, Sina Ghiassinejad, Rowanne Lyons, Yanzhao Li, and Hui Yang. These collaborations suggest active engagement in multidisciplinary research teams within related fields.
